Thanks guys :biggrin:
I've been working on remodeling the existing fish room, filtration is now down to cupboard size so the rest of the room with nicely for other purposes. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...um150425_1.jpg http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...rium150425.jpg |

Steve, check out my old build thread from back in the day when reefs were cool. The ceiling talk starts page 16.

Oh and you need to put some Big Rock "Purple gas" in that beer fridge, I drive to Alberta every summer to buy that. Steve |
I did it all myself, wasn't overly difficult. Thanks for the beer tip, I'll keep an eye out for it.
|
Update please....
|
Great looking build, very interesting.
|
Not much to update on really, it's pretty much unchanged which is perfect, I literally do nothing on this tank and it still looks nice. Here's a couple quick phone pics, maybe I'll get the camera out later but no promises. I did add archerfish last year which turned out to be not so compatible with discus, six of these guys now rule the tank. They are pretty interesting fish but might get rid of them and go back to discus.

Looks great.
Do the "pot holes" themselves have drainage, or does the water just sort of overflow the edges? I came pretty close to turning my 280g into a terrarium when I had my crash last summer. In the end didn't, for various reasons, or maybe the more accurate depiction is "In the end, haven't yet." Anyhow seeing the Radions here ... well, let's just say it's good to see. |

Totally rivals a reef for aesthetic appeal...
Nice job. |
Wow, that is really cool and fits the room. You sir have some mad skills.
|
Are archer fish the ones that spit water?

do you have any pics or vids of that?
Can you put crickets or something in there for them to "hunt"? Discus schmiscus... The way that looks combined with the cool factor of those fish...I'm not sure you could make a better conversation piece tank. |

I won't put live crickets in due the lack of containment. I had reptiles before and often had to deal with the cricket noises around the house from the odd one that would get away. But yes they would hunt them and they do certainly get any spiders or other house bugs that find their way in there. |
